Gujarat can do riots, Bengal can't: Mamata Banerjee

Kolkata: Stating that "Gujarat can do riots, we can't", West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday said the western state was flourishing mainly because of the huge funds it was getting from NRIs.

"Do not project Gujarat to me. What Gujarat can do, we can't. Yes we cannot indulge in riots. Gujarat is flourishing because huge funds come from NRIs," she said.

Mamata expressed her dissatisfaction over the comparison of Gujarat and her state.
